Preaching and Teaching from St. John Ev. Lutheran Church (Sherman Center), Random Lake, Wisconsin · May 23, 2020 · 18m

24. May 2020 Easter 7 John 15:26–16:4 Where is Jesus? How does the Christian live in the intervenient time between the Ascension and the Day of Judgment? We might follow our doubt and think that He has forgotten this promise. Perhaps having set His church in motion, Jesus has left us to fend for ourselves? That’s what His disciples thought after our Lord’s resurrection. They hid in the upper room or hid in their work, not quite sure if Jesus was a man of His word. They grew impatient. Their prayers faltered. Their mercy ended. They drew into their shells for fear and with doubt.
